Description
This glass bead hairpin captures the three constellations shining in the Milky Way and the summer starry sky.
Using traditional glass bead craftsmanship techniques, we have created a friendly and adorable original design for glass beads. The three summer constellations, Cygnus, Aquila, and Lyra, are carefully painted inside the glass beads against a deep, night-like blue background. The silver foil, which shines like the Milky Way, is adorned with luminous chips, giving them a soft glow like stars. The design is easy to use, even for beginners, as you can insert the beads in any direction without worrying about orientation.
Designer's thoughts
This hairpin was created with the hope that you will always be able to see the summer Milky Way, which can no longer be seen in the city. Featuring the familiar stars from the legend of Orihime and Hikoboshi, it is also recommended as a gift to express your wish for unchanging love. Why not look up at the night sky while searching for the bright first-magnitude stars Deneb, Altair, and Vega that shine brightly within this hairpin?
